Individualized Approach

At a small school like Riverbend, we’re able to provide an individualized experience for each student. Our classes are team-taught, so there’s always someone available to help support students. Our Montessori-trained teachers are talented, caring, and expert in providing what each child needs at every moment of development, inspiring them to become thoughtful, confident, articulate students and graduates.

Ideal Location

Riverbend is located in scenic South Natick near the banks of the Charles River, with open green spaces and sprawling farms as our neighbors. Every inch of our campus contributes to a rich learning environment for our students. Our purpose-built spaces and Montessori teaching materials are designed to foster curiosity and deep learning. Our satellite nature property provides additional space for learning and exploration.
